On my camping trip over the May long weekend, I made strawberry pancakes using dehydratred strawberries that I made earlier in the season and topped them with my homemade maple syrup which I also made earlier this year. Due to concussion #2 and working on renovating my new house, this post will be the youtube video that I created for Camper Christina Cooks - Making Strawberry Pancakes. I hope you don't mind and that you [...]

For my very first backcountry trip, ever, in 2002, I dehydrated all of my own food. Even back then it was popular and even more so as it was a lot harder to buy food already packaged and prepared in those foil bags like there is now. I mean, it existed but it was a lot more processed and not quite a delicious and good as the stuff they make is now. In 2002, I [...]

Last year I went on a few trips that were a couple days longer than weekend trips. As I camp so often, I try and make 3 and 4 day weekends with my vacation time, instead of taking an entire week or two off at once. That way I can enjoy being outdoors much more, in my opinion. One of these trips was a 4 day, 3 night trip [...]

Since starting my blog and youtube channel, I have gotten a lot of requests from people to see what I pack for my trips, so today I am posting what I packed for my 5 day Algonquin trip last summer. This canoe trip, was not only the longest trip I'd done solo, but also the first time I was portaging a canoe daily to get to each site. I had only portaged a canoe myself [...]

Since meeting my friend Jason last year, he has been going on about this place called McCrae Lake. I had never been there and according to him, it was a gorgeous place to spend a weekend camping, fishing and enjoying nature. The Thanksgiving long weekend was approaching and as I hadn't had any plans yet, I decided it would be a good weekend to check the place out. It was also the perfect weekend to [...]

I had been wanting to adventure in Killarney all summer but every time I had a free weekend, the park was booked up. When I checked a few weeks ago, I finally saw a few openings. They were all with portages but after carrying my lil kayak over 3km's in Algonquin each way a few weeks ago I figured a kilometer was totally doable and something I wouldn't have an issue with. Since booking my site on [...]

When my friend and fellow blogger Joyce asked me if I wanted to do a trip to Scorch Lake with her, I said yeah! When she told me there were 3 portages totaling over 3 km's, I said ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I mean, I paddle a kayak, not a canoe, and I have portaged my small kayak, but never that far. I suggested we rent a canoe, then I thought about it for the night. Then [...]
